Neuropathy

What is Neuropathy?

Neuropathy is defined as any medical condition related to nerves. Nerves are the basic unit of wiring system of body which carry sensations from one organ to another in the form of electrical signals.

These neurons can be damaged by other systemic diseases (diabetes, leprosy), vitamin deficiency, medication (chemotherapy), traumatic injury, immune system diseases, excessive alcohol etc. The symptoms that result from such an injury or inflammation include numbness, tingling, burning, sharp stitching pain and weakness in the distribution area of affecting nerve.

When damage occurs in the nerves related to the extremities i.e. hands and feet is called peripheral neuropathy.

Diet and Nutrition: various dietary strategies can improve gastrointestinal symptoms

Correcting vitamin deficiencies like Vitamin B12 deficiency.

Limiting or avoiding alcohol consumption can help in alcoholic neuropathy.

Quitting smoking is important because smoking constricts the blood vessels that supply nutrients to the peripheral nerves and can worsen neuropathic symptoms.

Self-care skills such as meticulous foot care and careful wound treatment in people with diabetes and others who have an impaired ability to feel pain, can alleviate symptoms and improve quality of life.

Neuropathy Pain Relief

Neuropathic pain is often difficult to control. Mild pain may sometimes be alleviated by analgesics sold over-the-counter.

Several classes of allopathic (conventional) drugs are used for chronic neuropathic pain. These include gabapentin, pregabalin, phenytoin, carbamazepine, antidepressants, mexiletine. The results vary a lot and in most cases are limited if the cause of neuropathy is not treated effectively.

In the most severe cases, doctors can surgically destroy nerves; however, the results are often temporary and the procedure can lead to complications.
